Charging the road to a cleaner Sri Lanka.

Green Frontiers was founded in Battaramulla in 2015 to guide society towards a greener way of living, starting with fast charging for electric vehicles, so that people could drive anywhere in the country without worrying about the next charge.

Our story

Green Frontiers (Pvt) Ltd was founded in Battaramulla, Sri Lanka, in December 2015 by Ashoka Ekanayaka “with the expectation of guiding the society towards a green world rather than a mere commercial interest”. The company set out to prove that environmental protection and viable technology could unite through sustainable business models.

“Our mission is to research, innovate, adopt, test, develop and evangelize environment friendly technologies which has potential to save the world and promote them via creative and practical business models.”
